This is the thread for me. I currently own two (subtle) somecs and a third is on it's way to me, Olli's cromovelato. A fluo paint one and a pista one are on the wish list, awaiting a fortuitous meeting of money and opportunity.
Pictures are coming soon. I'll be fitting a new HS to the oldest one this week in my quest to get it full Super Record - only missing the brake levers now EDIT: Forgot about the seatpost, it's currently got an aero one fitted, which doesn't quite make sense. I bought that (first) one of a friend's neighbour because "I liked the tulips in the frame", not fully realising what level of craftsmanship I was getting myself into. It was (and still is) branded a Plum, a local bike ship with a long heritage.
Following that purchase and looking to find out more about bicycle mechanics in general, I contacted and now find myself befriended to a retired tour-mechanic. We are now 7 bikes and a new hobby later!
So, yeah, about those somecs. I guess you never know where they'll bring you...
